MOMS' Night Out at Pomegranate Cafe, Aurora































Special Thanks to Pomegranate Cafe in Aurora for making our night so memorable!! As you can see from the photos we had a wonderful time and the food was amazing! If you stop by let them know you heard about them from Calvary Church MOMS'!
We had several new moms join us for the first time - Maria & Clara!! It was an awesome evening and we ended up closing the place down around 10:00 pm. Some of the moms continued on at Ann's place until about 2 am - but some of us just needed our sleep!!! Thank you to everyone for making this such a success - can't wait until the next MOMS' Night Out!
